MEET YOUR MENTOR

She didn't start with a method. She built one.

Jess Kimber has spent 18 years in recruitment, billed $20M+ in personal fees and built three businesses from the ground up.

RAIRE Recruitment Training has been built from what she has done herself: building cold desks from scratch, growing teams, winning clients, filling roles and creating repeatable processes that do not rely on endless manual activity.

HER STORY

**Jess started the same way most recruiters do. She hustled. She cold called.**

She figured things out the hard way through lost deals, missed placements and years of doing what everyone told her to do without ever asking why.

With 18 years in the industry, she became frustrated with traditional recruitment methods. When she launched her own Rec2Rec agency in Australia in 2020, she saw firsthand how transactional and low-converting the old approach had become. She was at full capacity with no clear way to scale and she was exhausted.

So she went all in on learning a different way. She studied strategies from B2B industries that didn't rely on cold calling and built a model focused on LinkedIn personal branding, scalable lead generation and automated sales systems. That approach generated thousands of leads and helped her build a 7-figure business within 2 years.

She realised the recruitment industry was missing a huge opportunity. So she started her 2nd business, Raire, to teach recruiters how to sell the modern way. To date, she's coached 1,000s of recruiters using the Be Raire Method, a proven system to build authority, generate consistent leads and create a predictable BD funnel, powered by automation.

Today, Jess runs two seven-figure businesses and is launching a third business in July 2026 to help recruiters scale through offshore support and virtual staffing. She teaches the method live, in real time, from what she has built, tested and refined across 18 years in recruitment.

The recruiters who consistently won were building systems, showing up where their clients already were, and selling without ever feeling desperate.

THE JOURNEY

18 years. 3 businesses. 1 method.

2008 - The beginning

Learns recruitment the hard way

Jess starts in a small boutique recruitment agency, working the phones, chasing roles and learning the industry from the ground up. Cold calls, contingent roles, missed placements and the kind of manual BD most recruiters were taught to rely on.

2015 — AUSTRALIA

Joins a global recruitment agency

Seven years into recruitment, Jess moves to Australia and joins a global recruitment agency. It is here she receives her first formal training and starts learning how to build repeatable processes around BD, sales, client management and delivery.

2020 — AGENCY FOUNDER

Launches her own Rec2Rec agency in Australia

Jess sees firsthand how transactional and low-converting the old recruitment model had become. She hires mentors, studies B2B strategies outside recruitment and rebuilds her approach around LinkedIn personal branding, inbound lead generation, modern sales skills, exclusive and retained work, and automated systems.

2023 — RAIRE IS FOUNDED

Teaches the method

Jess launches RAIRE to teach recruiters how to sell the modern way. She develops the Original Be RAIRE Method across three pillars: Market, Sell and Automate, then begins training recruiters globally through masterclasses, live programmes and speaking events.

NOW — GLOBAL REACH

18 years’ experience. $20M+ in personal fees. 2,000+ placements.

RAIRE now reaches a LinkedIn community of 26,000+, generates millions of views a year and has helped mentor 350+ founders, alongside thousands of recruiters trained through masterclasses, live programmes and speaking events. Jess is still on the tools, still mentoring founders and still helping recruiters move from manual BD to a modern, scalable business.

FUTURE — WHAT’S NEXT

Still building. Still refining. Still doing the work.

Jess continues to develop RAIRE’s programs while leading, as co-founder, an offshore Rec2Rec business launching in July 2026. Everything she teaches is still being tested, refined and applied inside real recruitment businesses while she continues helping recruiters scale with more strategy, structure and freedom.

HER STORY

This is a system. Not a script.

The Be Raire Method has been built, tested and refined through years of real-world recruitment, sales and brand building. Whether you generate leads through LinkedIn, cold outreach, referrals or automation — the principles stay the same. You adapt them to your voice, your market, your style.

▣

Build authority in your market

Become the obvious choice in your niche. Closing clients and candidates is the easy part for experienced recruiters. Building demand for your services and getting the opportunity in the first place, that's the difficult part. That's what we fix.

⚙

Create systems that run without you

A business that depends entirely on your energy, mood and call count is not a business, it's a job you can't leave. We build repeatable processes and automation so your desk grows even when you're not at your laptop.

◉

Sell with clarity and confidence

When you know how to lead the sales conversation properly, you do not need to force the close. You build trust, handle objections with more control and guide clients towards better decisions, whether you are selling exclusive work, retained terms or a higher-value recruitment service.

↗

Scale without burning out

The old model rewards activity above everything else: more calls, more emails and more hours. The modern model builds leverage through automation, delegation and a personal brand that keeps working in the background, so you are not constantly trading your time for leads and placements.
